Like the White Mansion family, another black director who was previously talented was rubbed off by the biographical movie [Oscar] and the heavy theme [Oscar]. This one is better, the use of several soundtracks and the setting of several scenes can still be It's eye-catching, and the unreserved display of cruelty and violence is still McQueen's taste. Unfortunately, the disappearance of the sense of time and the imbalance in the depiction of deep suffering make the film lose the emotional...

The most shocking scene in this film is: the blues sung by the blacks when they were buried for the slave laborers who died suddenly. This is the chant they hum during their labor. In the play, the protagonists often pretend to be different and ignore them. Qianfan, lying down in the mud seemed like an instant, he was completely desperate and couldn't help singing, and finally realized that in the years without urgent hope, only relying on the soul to save. Why are R&B and soul touching? ?...

Compared with the director's previous work, "Slave" is more neat and less innovative. For me, this movie is too bland and procrastinating. I still like the Steve McQueen who made...

Narrative tension and character acting are excellent. But the problem...it's too much like a classical drama rather than a re-enactment of the real story that its movie scenes show. The choice of words in many character interactions goes beyond the sentence-making level of thinking that an illiterate slave may have, such as how the male protagonist and the female slave dispute how to express their sadness, and the female slave scolded the shark "Being blinded by your own covetousness" "!...

Sure enough, it will win an Oscar, but it's not my favorite movie. Too Right Too Tall is a safe bet, but at the expense of style and power, Nebraska is just the...

However, without loss and without brilliance, it only describes the process of Solomon's enslavement. I'm not sure if McQueen felt that ditching the superfluous stunt would be a more faithful representation of this hellish journey. Still recognizable some of the pre/previous work's visual style and mise-en-scene. For example, compared with ordinary biopic directors, he still has a keen observation on the visual effects of the terroir and hydrology in the south, but there is no common ground...

The film is narrated from the perspective of black slaves, showing the cruelty and ruthlessness of white people, which reminds me of Doris Lessing's first novel "The Grass Is Singing", which is precisely the opposite narrative to the film. The psychological state of cutting in, despising and fearing black slaves is very delicately...

twelve years a slave
I think the eyes of the black people in the whole movie are very good. The dark skin, the depressed expression and the painful eyes convey the tragic color of the whole film... This kind of movie of black slaves and Jewish slaves often makes people feel a sense of need. The feeling of going deep...

Born equal, what is a slave?
Although I have seen the tragic past of black slaves in history books, when the movie uses the lens to zoom in on that bloody era, it is still very depressing and incomprehensible. The slavery system at that time released the evil of human nature to the extreme, and black people were no longer...

Tibeats: [after being punched out by Solomon over an argument] You will not live to see another day!

Freeman: Oren. John. Lethe. Eliza. Randall. Emily. Platt... Platt!
[Solomon is the only one still seated. He does not respond; Freeman approaches him]
Freeman: You fit the description given. Why didn't you answer when called?
Solomon Northup: My name is not Platt. My name is...
Freeman: [slaps Solomon hard across the face] Your name is Platt.
